Ukraine’s 225th Assault Regiment released footage from Kopani, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, rejecting Russian claims that the settlement was captured. The unit said Kopani remains under Ukrainian control, while one Russian involved in the flag stunt was taken prisoner. #Ukraine

@VisualStuart I hope he lingers for a long while, suffering the entire time while his family watches helplessly.
I hope his death is slow and painful with no medical resource.

“If you want a new Volvo, congratulations! That's totally cool with the Trump administration. If you instead prefer Volvo's luxury brand, Polestar, the Trump administration says those are now banned from sale in the U.S. No one really understands why Republicans insist Volvos are fine but Polestars aren't, especially since both run on Android Automotive. If the software is national security threat, wouldn't that mean Google's a national security threat? Regardless, if you're willing to roll the dice on the whole ‘banned in the U.S.’ thing, anyone willing to buy a Polestar 4 by July 31 will get an incredible deal.”

"Just as the argument for MAGA Christianity collapses when one actually reads the words of Jesus, the belief in America's Christian origins evaporates under the most cursory reading of the Constitution...Redefining America as a Christian nation isn't just historical revisionism. It's a political strategy, with a white-supremacist bent. It reframes citizenship in religious terms, turning faith into a tool of the powerful rather than a responsibility to the less fortunate":

Zoom call jokes aren't remotely funny.

🚨SCOOP: Republican Rep. Tom Kean repeatedly voted against legislation to give Americans paid family/medical leave, before Kean took 4 months of paid medical leave from Congress for depression - all while somehow finding the time to raise himself $160,000 worth of campaign cash.

Lincoln bacteria pool’s really coming together

Like Iran we should put T••••’s face on the Capitol rotunda floor and let people walk all over it

One exciting thing about Trump’s Great American State Fair: attendance is so pathetic we don’t have to worry about the Mall grass getting fucked up.
